how do i take care of a wild frog in danger?

There is this frog living in my grandma’s little bird house that has hole that go all the way through. My grandpa says he thinks it will die from the heat but I want to save it. A first I just used this little rubber fish thing to squirt water on him and he liked it but the water dried too quickly and most of the time I forgot about him. Then I tried to keep him but then I thought he might die if i keep him HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It’s not supposed to be in rehab it’s a wild tree frog that’s tiny!!!!

Tree frogs are very adaptive little creatures. It moved into the bird house to protect it from direct sunlight. I do not recommend that you do anything. Spraying water on it will heat it up faster. Think about when you are outside in the heat and then you spray water on yourself; it feels good for a moment (until the water evaporates) and then you are left feeling hotter.

Do not attempt to keep him. He will die in captivity. Plus it is very illegal to care for wildlife, even a simple tree frog, if you do not have the proper permits.

And if you need to move him again, please make sure your hands are wet before touching him. The salt on our hands and fingers burns their delicate skin.

Dwarf Frog laid eggs and now I don't know how to care for the tadpoles?

My Dwarf frog laid eggs. I collected them in a cup with water, but now I don't know how to care for the tadpoles. They are tiny, and I'm positive they are alive. I don't know how to feed them, since they are basically tiny specs, does anyone know what I should do?
I have some frog pellets and I crushed them up, do you think they will be small enough?

Tropical Fish Flakes is ok or cut up some tubaflix/blood worms up and through it in the tank.

How to Care for a Gray Tree Frog?

I bought a Gray Tree Frog at the mall yesterday. How big does the tank need to be? He's in a 2.5 gallon right now. What kind of bedding should I use? I have newspaper down right now. Should I give him a bowl of water? I've been spraying him with a water bottle. Does he need something to climb on? I've put a rock in the tank with him.

That 2.5 gallon tank should only be very temporary. The gray tree frog will need a 10 gallon tank in order to be healthy and happy, 15 gallon tank if you want two. Coco fiber bedding is best, and use a low att bulb to provide mild heat for them. He will need a large saucer-like water dish to take a soak in.

In the ten gallon, he'll want more than a rock to climb on. Make it interesting, driftwood and other structures should provide interest while looking natural, for example.

Below is more care information than can be provided in one post.

how to take care of a western pennsylvaina bull frog in the winter?

i rescued 4 bull frogs from a muddy pond that esd being condemended in Punxytani, pa and i was wondering how to take care of them in the winter, such as do they sleep?, tank temp?, how many crickets to feed each one?, and any other info anyone could give. also if anyone has any websites that could help, please let me know. thank you and any/all information is greatly appricated.

Please reconsider keeping them for the winter. Its great that you rescued them from being demolished, but please consider a few things. Most bullfrogs in the wild are carriers of parasites. That doesnt mean they are harmful to you if you are washing your hands properly, but they can make other animals in your house that they come into contact with sick.

Bullfrogs this time of year are looking for a place to burrow for the winter. They are not going to eat anything that you offer them (most likely) & it is very hard to duplicate their natural habitat for the winter. Most frogs taken this time of year from the wild will perish.

I'm really sorry as I am sure this wasnt the answer you were looking for. Please consider relocating them to another similar pond, perhaps one close to where you live so you may observe them in their natural setting.

Good luck to you!
